Assuming that the Chinese population continues to grow at the same rate, how many years until the population reaches 1.5 billion
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

29 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The population of the Chinese people is 1.3 bn, and they grow at a rate of 0.49% per year. To get the number of years it requires to reach 1.5 bn, we use this method

after x years, the population will be

1.3 * 1.0049^x

so you just need to solve

1.3 * 1.0049^x = 1.5

1.0049^x = 1.5/1.3

x log 1.0049 = log(1.5/1.3)

x = log(1.5/1.3)/log(1.0049)

x = 0.062 / 0.002122

x = 29.25 years

Therefore, at the rate of 0.49%, the Chinese population of 1.3bn needs 29 years to clock 1.5 bn

Jose asks his friends to guess the higher of two grades he received on his math tests. He gives them two hints. The difference o
AlekseyPX

Answer : 96

x – y = 16 --------> equation 1

\frac{1}{8} x +\frac{1}{2} y = 52

x is the higher grade and y is the lower grade

We solve the first equation for y

x - y = 16

-y = 16 -x ( divide each term by -1)

y = -16 + x

Now substitute y in second equation

\frac{1}{8} x +\frac{1}{2} ( -16 + x ) = 52

\frac{1}{8} x - 8 +   \frac{1}{2} x = 52

\frac{1}{8} x  +   \frac{1}{2} x - 8 = 52

Take common denominator to combine fractions

\frac{1}{8} x  +   \frac{4}{8} x  -8 = 52

\frac{5}{8} x - 8  = 52

Add 8 on both sides

\frac{5}{8} x   = 60

Multiply both sides by \frac{8}{5}

x = 96

We know x is the higher grade

96 is the higher grade of Jose’s two tests.

miv72 [106K]
On the added picture you can see that graphs of functions y=2x^2-2 and y=-0.5x+4 have two points of intersection. The x-coordinates of these points are the solutions of the equation 
2x^2-2=-0.5x+4.
Hence, the approximate solutions are x=-1.9 and x=1.6.
